ABSENCES
A reminder that if you are unable to attend a class, you still must complete the Absence Request Form on the website.  In addition, excused absences still count against your attendance percentage.  In order to be promoted or pass your level at the end of the year, your attendance must be ≥
60%.  You may be required to conduct make-up classes or additional training if you do not meet this requirement. 


SUPPLY
In order t get your uniform or uniform parts, please fill out the following form:
https://forms.gle/HJDKnmyMzNmuG26g9

Level 1 and 2's if you wish to receive uniform parts this Friday please ensure that you are filling out the google form prior to Friday

Return Cadets that need to exchange please prepare the following in addition to the form above:

1. Freshen them up by giving them all good wash and polish your boots/ blacken your welts
2. Separate pieces that do not fit.
Write on a Piece of paper:

      a. Your Last Name, First Name

      b. Which parts do you need to be replaced and their sizes,
                 ex.  Bloggins, Avery
                 Light blue shirt male 13 or female 10M
                 Boots 220/98 
                 Tunic 6432
                 Pants 6732
                 Wedge 7 1/2
                 ***if exchanging rank slips please indicate on the bag and place old one in the bag and new rank required***

3. Place in a bag with the paper from above and insert it on top of the items in the bag or stapled on the outside. If boots do not fit they can be given separately

**Please do not return socks and dark blue cotton T-shirt** If you need these replaced just indicate your previous sizes on the paper and your new size required


Uniforms being returned need to be washed and boots polished.
Failure to do so will put your exchange at the back of the line and/or will be returned to you

Failure to complete the google form will result in the new uniform pieces being returned to you at my convenience. As levels come in on different weeks I will not be able to give you your uniform back on the same night if I do not know your new measurements. Same night exchange is not guaranteed but If sizes are in stock I will try. Please do not leave before checking if I was able to exchange your uniform.
